Question

I am editing views/elements/form_user.ctp and require a custom label for my input, I cannot change the current value from city to say city/town because this value must correspond to the database field.

My code is currently:

 echo $form->input('city'); 

How do I add a custom label to the form helper to display a customised label that doesn't output text as exactly the name of the database field?

Was it helpful?

Solution

echo $form->input('city', array(
  'label' => 'My Label'
)); 

It's in the docs...

OTHER TIPS

I suggest you read the docs as this is pretty basic stuff imho!

echo $form->input('city', array('label' => 'My Field'));
